Chapter 032 Undercurrent of the Capital (Part 1)

Gao Jingshi gave Su Yonglu advice, but he just didn't want to see Gao's party lose an important member. But after all, he was only Gao Gong's nephew, not Gao Gong himself. Whether Su Yonglu listened to these suggestions or not, Gao Jingshi had no control over it, and it didn't matter.

Interested in taking care of it.

There is a way for Buddha to save those who are destined to be. I have said this to someone high, and it can be considered that my benevolence and righteousness have been exhausted.

After all, I have my own business to attend to.

There should be some people in the capital who can't wait to take action, and now it's time to consider closing the trap I've laid out since I left the capital.

Su Yonglu was inspired by Gao's pragmatic suggestions and felt that the feng shui of the Gao family's ancestral tombs was good.

Although the little pavilion elder in the Jiajing Dynasty was very smart, he was not good at reading, and his character was extremely poor. He was greedy for money, lustful, and had a lot of faults. Otherwise, even if Yan Song eventually fell, the Yan family would not be able to do it.

The son knocked down the nine springs from the clouds.

The little pavilion elder in front of him, Long Qingchao, seemed to be much better than Yan Shifan. Not only was he equally skillful, he was able to provide himself with suggestions to solve such a big trouble at the age of less than ten years old, but he was also very good at reading.

Previously, he was well-known in Shilin with "Long Wen Bian Ying", and was specially appointed by His Majesty to be the accompanying reader for the prince. This time, he even defeated Xiao Sanyuan in the Henan Boy Examination and achieved a great story. If this continues, as long as he does not go astray

There is great hope for becoming a Jinshi in the future.

As long as he takes the right path and becomes a Jinshi, can Lao Gao Ge's foundation of having students all over the world be used to his advantage?

Su Yonglu didn't know it, but he was shocked when he calculated it. As long as Gao Pragmatic could pass the imperial examination, his future prospects would be limitless!

Think about it, what will he have at that time? The prince's close relatives are the guarantee of his future holy family; the disciples of the Gao family are his future help in the court; the Mongolian classics are the foundation of his future reputation... As long as he can win the gold medal

In the middle, there really is nothing missing, and no one can stop him from ascending to the throne!

He is not even short of money, and it is almost impossible for his reputation to be ruined because of his personal ethics!

This is too unique. Who else is worthy of being his political opponent in the future?

Su Yonglu did the math and was shocked. Even the last part of Gao Pingshi's words seemed a little dazed, so he quickly asked again.

Gao Pragmatic just thought that he was considering the feasibility of this suggestion and didn't mind. He once again expressed to him that if there were still surplus refugees who were difficult to resettle after the work-replacing program, he happened to open something for the benefit of his hometown.

Coal mines, iron mines, and workshops have also been built, which can help to more or less arrange some personnel. At the same time, he modestly expressed that his ability is limited, and the number of people he can arrange is only a few thousand, not tens of thousands. I hope Zhongcheng will

Do not mind.

How could Su Yonglu mind?

He sighed in his heart, if all the wealthy households in Henan had such a high consciousness as you, Gao Shidu, and could cooperate with the governor's office so proactively, I'm afraid I wouldn't even have to ask Mr. Pan He, and just do it myself.

This matter has been taken care of! If you have such achievements, you will have great hope of returning to the capital of God to join the cabinet in the future! It is a pity that there is only such a high official in the world, and he is willing to sacrifice his family for the country. What a pity!

However, Su Zhongcheng actually overthought it. Gao Shi read that there was no such thing as sacrificing his family for the country. He was clearly like a goose plucking his hair - mining is such a hard job. Unless people can't survive, there are really not many people who are willing to do it.

Following this wave of refugees to attract people is almost as cost-effective as later generations taking advantage of the economic crisis in other countries to buy at the bottom. You would be a fool not to do so.

Of course you should serve your country, but it would be insensitive to sacrifice your family. The best way is to get the best of both worlds.

Returning to the inn from the governor's office of Su Yonglu, Gao Jingshi called Gao Jue and asked him to get all the recent letters from the capital. He wanted to carefully analyze the situation in the capital.

It has been almost half a year since he left the capital at the end of last year. To be honest, there has been a lot of movement in the capital in the past six months. All kinds of information must be sorted out before he returns to the capital, and then he can carefully think about the previous arrangements.

Is it still suitable, or are there any omissions?

After all, historically, Emperor Longqing only had about a year left to live, and once this emperor passed away, some people would take advantage of him and take action against Gao Gong.

If he didn't have to wait for Gao Gong to become the first assistant in order to induce some people to take action, why would Gao Gong have to wait for so long? When he accompanied Gao Gong back to Beijing, he suggested that Gao Gong find a way to win over some people, didn't he?

safer?

It’s not that I don’t want to, it’s that I really can’t.

Gao Gong's successful comeback was due to Emperor Longqing's secret arrangement and acquiescence, but a certain pavilion elder also played a major role in it. If Gao Gong returned to Beijing, instead of touching his recognized political enemies, he would attack him first.

It would be too shocking for this ally to take action. Who would dare to be of the same mind as Gao Gong in the future?

Therefore, Gao Jingshi cannot come up with such a bad idea, and Gao Gong cannot do this. Even when Hai Rui was involved in the Songjiang land withdrawal case, Xu Jie secretly gave Zhang Juzheng a huge sum of money, reportedly 30,000 taels of silver, and Zhang Juzheng came to find him.

Gao Gong interceded, but Gao Gong still accepted Xu Jie's request for peace and gave Zhang Juzheng face. He even did not pursue the case of power-for-money transactions that disappointed him very much.

However, in Gao Gong's heart, that was also the seed for him and Zhang Juzheng to part ways. After this seed was planted, one day it would sprout, grow, and bear fruit. It was from that moment on that Gao Gong thought that he was enough.

After understanding Zhang Juzheng's feelings, if Zhang Juzheng still refused to restrain himself, he would have no choice but to ignore the old friendship and regulate officials strictly.

The recent situation has further loosened the alliance between Gao and Zhang that was originally maintained by mutual pressure.

Because Zhao Zhenji retired from office, Li Chunfang also completely lost the confidence to confront the Gao and Zhang alliance because of Zhao Zhenji's resignation.

If it weren't for the fact that the issue of my answer to the tribute has entered the final stage, and he, the chief assistant, could not resign at such a critical moment, I am afraid that he would have taken the initiative to resign and return to his hometown - in fact, Li Chunfang has submitted his resignation twice.

He resigned because Emperor Longqing refused to let him leave at this time.

Gao pragmatic carefully analyzed Long Qing's move. He felt that Emperor Long Qing was unwilling to let Li Chunfang resign now, not because he wanted to blame Li Chunfang for the great achievement of granting tribute to me, but because Emperor Long Qing himself might also be wrong about it.

I am dubious about the actual effect of paying tribute.

The main thrust for this thing to be accomplished came from Gao Gong, with Zhang Juzheng as the main booster. Apart from Gao Pragmatic, no one else in the Ming Dynasty could predict the outcome, so although it seems that the peace negotiation was successful at present, Northern Xinjiang may never be able to do so again.

However, no one can guarantee that there will be no accidents.

What if I go back on my word and just negotiate a peace and receive the title, but then attack the border with troops again, wouldn't the tribute issue become a laughing stock? Who will be responsible for it then? Don't let Li Chunfang, the nominal chief minister, who will step down sooner or later

Should Gao Gong bear this responsibility, should something happen happen to Gao Gong?

Lord Long Qing would not agree.
